Hi,   as the topic already says, this would be a great and needed addition to the camera photo upload.I solely bought the lifetime plexpass membership cause of the camera upload feature.   Would be fantastic to get video upload also, then ios/andoird owners ave no need anymore to directly connect their phones to save videos.   Many thanks, Christian   ---

I have had Plex for 6+ months and am just now turning on Camera Upload on 4 cellphones and 2 iPads.  I didn't realize until everything finished uploading and not a single video had uploaded.  :(  I then read the Camera Upload documentation and it doesn't mention video anywhere, not even that it isn't supported!  :( I agree completely that Camera Video Upload is sorely lacking and desperately needed. Honestly, the ability to upload photos and videos to my server was a major selling feature to my wife to allow me to build the server that I built... just now getting around to turning this on though.  lol  Shhh... don't tell her.  :-) Larry ---

Agreed - the feature at present sound wonderful until you realise video is not supported, at which point it becomes more that useless. Please address this in anyway possible! I have lots too many photos/videos over the years from my phones due to failing hardware and sloppy personal backup habits - plex to the rescue please! TM ---

Adding my vote in as well! Plex is great for media management, but Video backup is the feature that put it over the edge for me to get a Plex pass. Please make video backup available for iOS devices asap! ---

I vote for this as the next most important feature for Plex! I'd feel a lot better knowing all my videos are backed up on my computer just like my mobile photos. Also, this provides an easy to to find these videos when I want to show them to family. ---

Agreed. Would be a very useful feature. And once it's available it would be splendid if it can have an option to go back and retroactively upload the videos already on the device. ---

This gets my vote too. I've used Plex for about a year as a dlna server which it's done well, purchased apps on iOS and Android and recently got Plex Pass so I can use it on my PS3 and PS4. I found out that Plex Pass had a camera photo backup feature so I was sold on the whole idea. Now I find it doesn't back up video, which would make the backup solution perfect for me. Hopefully this will get added soon and I can rely on Plex to handle all my photo AND video backup needs  :) ---

Another vote for video uploads; using Plex Camera Upload is unable to replace dropbox for me until video uploads get added... ---
